Large-Area Scintillation Counters [PDF]

Nature, 1950
IT is of great interest, particularly in cosmic ray experiments, to employ scintillation counters which have a large sensitive area. The first essential is a large transparent crystal. Crystals of naphthalene containing 1 per cent of anthracene and of size up to 8 in. in diameter and ½ in.

Modelling of an IR scintillation counter [PDF]

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2000
A systematic study of the excitation and de-excitation mechanisms in ternary gas mixtures Ar+CO2+N2 is presented regarding the possibility of developing a proportional scintillation counter based on the detection of the infrared molecular emissions associated with the lowest vibrational states of molecules.

The measurement of tritium in water samples with electrolytic enrichment using liquid scintillation counter [PDF]

Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2012
Tritium (3H) present in the environment decreased in the last decades and nowadays it has low activity concentrations. Measurement of low-level tritium activities in natural waters, e. g. in precipitation, groundwater, and river water requires special

Primary and secondary scintillation measurements in a xenon Gas Proportional Scintillation Counter [PDF]

, 2010
NEXT is a new experiment to search for neutrinoless double beta decay using a 100 kg radio-pure high-pressure gaseous xenon TPC. The detector requires excellent energy resolution, which can be achieved in a Xe TPC with electroluminescence readout ...

Enrichment of Low-Level Tritium in Groundwater via an Electrolysis Process for Liquid Scintillation Counting Applications

Geosciences, 2023
Tritium levels in the groundwater of arid regions are very low; in most cases, these low tritium levels cannot be detected using a conventional liquid scintillation counter (LSC).

An Advanced Optimization Method to Minimize the Detection Limit of Liquid Scintillation Counter to Measure Low-Level Tritium Activity in Groundwater

Radiation, 2023
In arid regions, the tritium concentration in groundwater is typically very low and often falls below the minimum detectable activity (MDA) of the conventional liquid scintillation counter (LSC).
